Today’s Dominion is one of the nation’s largest producers and distributors of electricity and natural gas.

We serve a retail base of more than 5 million customers in 11 states in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the U.S. Supplying our $39 billion energy network are about 26,500 megawatts of electric generation and 1 trillion cubic feet equivalent of natural gas and oil reserves.

The company’s transportation and delivery infrastructure includes 6,000 miles of electric transmission lines in three states and almost 8,000 miles of natural gas pipelines in six states. Dominion also owns and operates the largest U.S. underground natural gas storage system, as well as the Cove Point liquefied natural gas import terminal on the Chesapeake Bay.

The energy we provide serves as the foundation for economic prosperity and improved living standards.

Our wires and pipes link us directly to our customers. The commodities we sell are the very lifeblood of modern existence.

Our mission is to create long-term value for shareholders, customers, employees and the communities we serve. At the same time, we recognize that our core energy production and delivery businesses have an inevitable impact on the natural world. So we are investing resources at an unprecedented level to minimize our environmental footprint. And we are working on multiple fronts to improve our operating efficiency, optimize the way we use resources, and introduce innovative programs to help our customers manage their energy use.

Integrating our business mission and growth outlook with responsible stewardship of the environment is an ongoing challenge, especially as we confront growing concerns about carbon emissions and climate change.

Dominion's Corporate Headquarters

Dominion's Corporate Headquarters
in Richmond, Va.


In 2007, we sold most of our natural gas and oil exploration and production assets. Our goal was to refocus the company on Dominion’s electric generation and energy distribution, transmission, storage and retail businesses. By repositioning as a producer and distributor of energy primarily in regulated markets, we expect to enhance the company’s long-term value for its investors and other stakeholders.

We have embarked on a large build-out of energy infrastructure to meet expected strong growth in demand over the next decade. In the three-year period from 2008-2010 alone, we have earmarked almost $12 billion to fund major construction projects in our three business units: Dominion Generation, Dominion Energy and Dominion Virginia Power.

Even with increased emphasis on energy efficiency and conservation programs, these investments are needed to keep pace with our customers’ rapidly growing energy needs.

We believe the coming decade will present many opportunities for Dominion to achieve sustainable growth and operate its business in ways that will reward its shareholders, customers and employees.
